GIVING Campaign - Day 3

Well, sure enough I got roped back into rescue work!

I knew me fostering and in the end adopting Amber would lead to more volunteering. I just wasn't prepared to take back over the paperwork - AGAIN. For now I am just helping get caught up - it really is a time consuming job and I don't have time for it, even though we have now made it a paid position - with owning my own business and working full time at the telephone company, I really cannot find the time to do paperwork again full time.

So Day 3 - I bought dinner for Jonnie and I. Ok, She's a cheap date - Taco Tuesday and cheap beer - but it's still something nice I can do for my closest girlfriend. I don't get along well with many girls, but Jonnie and I have that bond where we can not talk for a while, and pick up right where we left off. I'm grateful she's always been there for me as a friend and like an older sister.

And how I have NO photos of the two of us, I have no idea. I know there are 2 on my dead laptop, so must find a way to get them off the drive.

Cheers!

GIVING Campaign - Day 2

On Day 2 of my giving campaign, a fellow rescue friend through Southern California Bulldog Rescue has been having medical issues with her bully, Muttley. She had already spent most of her money on tests, and needed to get more tests done to figure out what was going on, and now she didn't have the money to pay the mortgage on the house. Someone mentioned donating money or doing a fundraiser, and in the course of about 15 minutes, 5 people asked for her Paypal address and sent funds.

Feel better soon, Muttley! Beki I'm glad I could help with donating some money to finding more answers as to why Muttley seems to be retaining a lot of fluids!

GIVING Campaign - Day 1

Day 1 came early for me, as I was trying to save the biggest surprise for last, but it came 2 days early and before Christmas day, to say the least!

I had been fostering for DREAM animal rescue for 3 weeks and we were discussing the upcoming adoption event on Thanksgiving weekend. Last event, I dropped off my foster, Amber, and she was miserable the whole time. When I came to pick her up she was laying in her litter box being non-social. My friend Staci said when I left, Amber watched me as I walked away from her and then continued to look for me.

I knew she never did well at events, and she was really blossoming into a wonderful kitten here! She loves catnip, grooms fuzzy cat, and will jump in anyone's lap who will let her. I decided I wasn't going to torture her by going to events anymore, and that she could stay permanently with me.

I filled out her application, paid her fee, and now she's a permanent resident! Here she is in her few short weeks with me:
